HEADTEACHER MISS GOULDING MRS NOBLE MRS WARNER MRS ALLEN MISS WEST MRS BURKS SUSIE FEARN
HEADTEACHER
MR MIKE HARDING
I have been Headteacher at All Saints’ since April 2006. In that time school has undergone a significant number of changes including: redevelopment of the play areas; Interactive Whiteboards in every class room; a new suite of computers; the development of meeting and learning spaces – the list is endless.
All Saints’ school is a vibrant and supportive learning environment, peopled by talented/dedicated staff, a supportive community and of course happy children.
The children at All Saints’ are well rounded multi talented young people who are rightly proud of their school. When people visit our school they always comment on the warmth of the welcome offered and the manner in which the children help one another.
I believe that schools should be happy, light and bright places were children are given a multitude of opportunities to investigate and express themselves.
All Saints’ achieves this on all levels!
As an individual I am an active person who adheres to the old adage – healthy mind equals healthy body. I enjoy talking with the parents and children about a wide range of topics and they soon get to know which football team I follow.

CLASS 1
MISS ELIZABETH GOULDING
Play! Play! Play!
I am currently teaching the Reception Class at All Saints. I believe that children learn best when they take part in new experiences and direct their own learning. Child – initiated activities produce happy, enthusiastic and motivated children, eager to discover and learn.
The Foundation Stage Curriculum (ages 3 – 5) advises teachers to provide an environment that is stimulating and promotes opportunities for children to engage in worthwhile structured play. Therefore children in my classroom can often be found writing in shaving foam, making number plates for the bikes or making porridge for Goldilocks.
One of the great things about working at All Saints is that the ethos of ‘learning through doing’ is carried on throughout the school. From pantomime visits and French mornings to Altogether Active week, the children at All Saints have experiences that will stay with them throughout their lives.
In my spare time (is there any?) I love to paint and my house is littered with half-finished creations. I also enjoy swimming and playing the piano when I’m not catching up with friends and family.

CLASS 2
MRS KATE NOBLE 
I believe All Saints’ is a fantastic place to work. Whilst training at Manchester Metropolitan University I carried out a work placement as a student at All Saints and loved it so much that when there was a job available I applied immediately. On receiving the news that my application and interview had been successful I was thrilled.
All Saints’ is like a home from home for myself and many of the staff who are lucky enough to work in our thriving school. This is due in part to the combination of the supportive and dedicated staff, personal approaches with parents/pupils and the family atmosphere at All Saints’. The All Saints community is caring and supportive of all we are big enough to thrive, yet small enough to care.
As a Marple resident I have a real passion to make a difference for all in our community (as do all staff members).
In my leisure time I enjoy spending time having fun with family and friends. Leisure pursuits include Salsa dancing and Skiing. I also try to make time to watch Stockport County (the Local Football team!)

CLASS 3
MRS LINDSAY WARNER
I find teaching to be a very rewarding profession. I believe that children learn best when they are ‘doing’, and often find that the most productive learning takes place outside the classroom.
I also strongly believe in teaching children as individuals. Every child has their own way of learning and their own pace for learning. It is up to us as teachers to accommodate their needs and provide them with the best opportunities we can, so that they can meet their potential while at primary school.

CLASS 4 & DEPUTY HEADTEACHER
MRS VIVIENNE ALLEN 
I teach class four, and have been at All Saints since September 2004.
I believe that learning should be a positive experience where children are motivated and excited. Children need to be encouraged to think outside the box to use their knowledge and skills to solve problems and develop independence. Crucial to children’s development academically is their acquisition of social skills. Learning to compromise, tolerance and understanding of other cultures, religions and values that will be with them long after they have left school. These qualities will take them as well rounded adults into the twenty first century as life long learners.
As well as being a class teacher I am also Deputy Headteacher. In this role I work alongside the Headteacher and Senior Management Team, playing an integral part in the leadership and management of the school. In my role as community coordinator I visit new families and participate in local events with our children, and maintain strong links with the church.
I live locally and enjoy being part of the community where I teach. Central to all I do is my Christian faith, which is why I love teaching within the community that is All Saints’.
In my spare time I love walking, gardening, cooking and spending time with my family.

CLASS 5
MISS KATIE WEST
I believe that children are very precious and that their primary years are vitally important. It is a time when attitudes are formed which will affect the rest of their lives. My aim as a teacher is to draw on my own enthusiasm for learning to inspire a love of learning in every child and build upon individual strengths and talents. I seek to provide a warm, caring and positive working environment where children feel valued and can learn and develop with confidence.
At All Saints' we stongly believe in providing a wide variety of opportunities where children are encouraged to develop life skills. One way in which we achieve this in Class 5 is to participate in the Stockport Young Entrepreneurs Competition. This is a borough wide competition in which the children establish and run their very own business. The children are required to apply for jobs, create a product, market and advertise their product, sell it and also manage their finances. The finale of the competition is a 'Dragons Den' style event at Stockport Town Hall where businessmen and women assess the children's business plan and profit margins. It is a wonderful experience for the children, which inspires, challenges and motivates children about business.
In my life outside of teaching, I enjoy playing golf, going to the gym, swimming and cooking. I also love spending time with my family and friends.
All Saints' is a friendly, happy and caring school and I feel very priviledged to work in such a thriving place.

My interests include reading, Pilates, playing the piano, listening to music and visiting France as often as possible!

SHARED TEACHER
SUSIE FEARN
I believe we are in a privileged position as teachers.
We have the opportunity to work with children who we support as they blossom and grow. We are able to develop and encouraging their enquiring minds, building their self-esteem and confidence and promote their talents and gifts
During my time at All Saints’ I have taught all infant classes (Reception to Year 2) as a class teacher. I am currently teaching throughout the school as a ‘roving teacher’ and am responsible for: releasing teachers from their class to enable them to fulfil their management and co-ordinator roles; provide intervention for targeted groups of children such as gifted & talented or those who need a boost to reach their full potential and the latest string to my bow is as a French teacher. C'est bien, n'est-ce-pas?
Learning is fun and in my classes I foster enthusiasm and a positive culture through using aids such as Interactive White Board, practical apparatus, a range of learning styles for example ‘Talking Partners’, ‘Role Play and ‘Peer Assessment’. The children develop their emotional and social intelligence through structured opportunities across the curriculum and we celebrate success with awards such as ‘Star of the Day ’and ‘Merits’.
Most children love the opportunity to work outdoors so here at All Saint’s we make provision for this learning. As we are fortunate enough in having a large playing field plus a KS1 and KS2 playground as well as a Reception outdoor area, our pupils learning is enhanced and extended. One Reception class I taught worked with a child’s granddad in making wooden nesting boxes for birds and another for hedgehogs (using carpentry tools) which we then set up around the field enabling the children to record and monitor the wildlife that used the nests.
Providing the children with an enriched and diverse curriculum gives all pupils a chance to shine with what makes them tick, this fosters a love of learning and a sense of satisfaction. My class have participated in a Greek Day where we enjoyed the food, music and dressing up in togas. We have taken trips out to the theatre, library, Country Park, art gallery, seaside and the airport. These visits are linked with our topic units and are extremely valuable in that they enhance learning opportunities.
In my life outside of teaching, I pursue a range of interests which include voluntary work as a Governor, activities such as rock climbing, yoga, running and being part of the ‘Great Outdoors’. Family and friends are very special to me therefore building and maintaining relationships are a priority as I believe it gives one a sense of place and belonging.
